1. How to Use Proper Etiquette when Smoking

2. Are you sick and tired of getting dirty looks whenever you whip out a cigarette? Knowing proper smoking etiquette is crucial, especially with the various public smoking bans and restrictions public smoking laws present across the United States. It can be a challenge that you can skillfully master by applying a number of strategies.

4. Smoke only in designated smoking spots at work. • Smoking in the workplace is illegal throughout many parts of the Australia and in many countries worldwide. Some companies have designed sections outdoors where employees can smoke. Even Reynolds American, the second largest cigarette maker in the U.S., has banned its employees from smoking indoors and only smoking in designated smoking areas outdoors. • Make sure you are fully adhering to the rules stated in the designated smoking areas. Oftentimes, you will find a “designated smoking area” sign placed in the area where you are allowed to smoke. You’ll also find signs stating how far away from a building you must be before lighting up.

6. Choosing an Appropriate Time and Place to Smoke Ask first before lighting up around others. If you’re in a mixed crowd or with nonsmokers, always ask permission before smoking. Many people cannot tolerate the smell of smoke. In addition, someone may have health problems, some even life threatening, that require them to stay away from smoking.

7. Don’t smoke around children and pregnant women Smoking around children should be avoided at all costs. Smoking increases a baby’s risk of dying from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). In addition, smoking around pregnant women increases a baby’s risk of SIDS after birth. Smoking can also trigger asthma attacks in children. Furthermore, children are more prone to developing a number of illness, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, and ear infections, when exposed to smoking.

9. Avoid smoking in parks and playgrounds. Many jurisdictions and cities have laws banning smoking in parks and playgrounds. Parks and playgrounds are filled with children, pregnant mothers, and families. As a result, avoid smoking in these recreational areas.

11. Smoke at the back or side of a building. Many buildings and cities have rules stating the specific distance that you must be away from the front door when smoking. If this distance is not stated, you’ll want to find a place with the least amount of foot traffic. Never smoke in front of a building; this forces people who do not want to inhale your smoke to be force-fed it. There also may be children or people with asthma coming too.

12. Freshen up after smoking. • As you know, the smell of smoke lingers everywhere, including your skin. Even if you are smoking outside, you still carry the residual fumes and chemicals that are left on skin, hair, and clothes inside with you. • Be sure to wash at least your face and hands after smoking. If possible, change your clothes, or wear as little clothing as possible while smoking outside. Keep you hair tied back while smoking to decrease the amount of smoke that gets into your hair.
